\n\n

1. How it works<\/h2>\n\n

\n MyURemote communicates directly with the\n Epson projector<\/strong> on the local network.\n <\/p>\n\n

\n The integration uses Epson’s\n ESC\/VP.net<\/strong> network communication layer and\n ESC\/VP21<\/strong> projector commands.\n <\/p>\n\n

    \n
  • The Epson projector is configured as a normal IP device in MyURemote.<\/li>\n
  • Communication uses TCP port 3629<\/code>.<\/li>\n
  • MyURemote automatically establishes an ESC\/VP.net session before sending projector commands.<\/li>\n
  • If the projector requires a Monitor Password, MyURemote detects this automatically.<\/li>\n
  • After successful authentication, the Monitor Password is stored for future connections.<\/li>\n <\/ul>\n\n <\/section>\n\n\n \n
    \n\n

    2. Requirements<\/h2>\n\n
      \n
    • A compatible Epson projector with network control support.<\/li>\n
    • The projector must be connected to your local network.<\/li>\n
    • The IP address of the Epson projector.<\/li>\n
    • TCP port 3629<\/code> must be reachable from the MyURemote device.<\/li>\n
    • The MyURemote app and Epson projector must be able to communicate on the local network.<\/li>\n <\/ul>\n\n

      \n Tip: reserve the projector IP address in your router\/DHCP configuration\n so that it does not change.\n <\/p>\n\n <\/section>\n\n\n \n

      \n\n

      3. Configure the Epson projector in MyURemote<\/h2>\n\n

      \n First add the Epson projector in the\n MyURemote Configuration Panel<\/strong>.\n <\/p>\n\n

      \n Select:\n <\/p>\n\n 

      Brand:       Epson\nProduct:     Projector\nTechnology:  IP\nDevice type: All devices IP Control (ESC\/VP21 Protocol)<\/code><\/pre>\n\n    
      \n      Under Network properties<\/strong> enter:\n    <\/p>\n\n    
      IP address:  IP address of your Epson projector\nPort:        3629<\/code><\/pre>\n\n    
      \n      Example: 192.168.1.100:3629<\/code>\n    <\/p>\n\n  <\/section>\n\n\n  \n  
      \n\n    
      \n      4. Epson Monitor Password\n    <\/h2>\n\n    
      \n      Some Epson projectors require a\n      Monitor Password<\/strong> before ESC\/VP.net control is allowed.\n    <\/p>\n\n    
      \n      MyURemote checks this automatically when it establishes the connection.\n    <\/p>\n\n    
      \n      Important:<\/strong>
      \n      You do not need to enter the Monitor Password in the normal\n      MyURemote device configuration.\n      If authentication is required, MyURemote asks for it automatically.\n    <\/div>\n\n    
      \n      When authentication is required, MyURemote displays:\n    <\/p>\n\n    
      Epson projector authentication\n\nThis Epson projector requires a Monitor Password.\n\nMonitor Password:\n[                ]\n\n[ Save & Connect ]<\/code><\/pre>\n\n    
      \n      Enter the same Monitor Password that is configured in the Epson projector.\n      MyURemote first verifies the password with the projector.\n      Only after successful authentication is the password stored.\n    <\/p>\n\n  <\/section>\n\n\n  \n  
      \n\n    
      5. Configure the Monitor Password on the Epson projector<\/h2>\n\n    
      \n      If your projector requires authentication, configure a\n      Monitor Password<\/strong> in the projector’s network settings.\n    <\/p>\n\n    
      \n      On Epson projectors with the menu layout used during our testing:\n    <\/p>\n\n    
      Network\n\u2192 Network Settings\n\u2192 Monitor Password<\/code><\/pre>\n\n    
      \n      Menu names can vary slightly between Epson models and firmware versions.\n    <\/p>\n\n    
      \n      Tip:<\/strong> after changing the Monitor Password in the projector,\n      MyURemote will request the new password the next time authentication fails.\n    <\/div>\n\n  <\/section>\n\n\n  \n  
      \n\n    
      6. First connection<\/h2>\n\n    
      \n      MyURemote handles the ESC\/VP.net connection automatically.\n    <\/p>\n\n    
      MyURemote connects to TCP port 3629\n              \u2193\nChecks whether a Monitor Password is required\n              \u2193\nNo password required\n              \u2193\nConnect directly\n              \u2193\nSend ESC\/VP21 command\n\n\nPassword required\n              \u2193\nLoad stored Monitor Password\n              \u2193\nIf no password is stored:\nask the user for the password\n              \u2193\nAuthenticate\n              \u2193\nSend ESC\/VP21 command<\/code><\/pre>\n\n    
      \n      Once authentication has succeeded, MyURemote stores the Monitor Password\n      and normally reconnects automatically without asking for it again.\n    <\/p>\n\n    
      \n      MyURemote also maintains the ESC\/VP.net TCP session when possible and\n      automatically re-establishes it when the projector or network connection\n      has closed the previous session.\n    <\/p>\n\n  <\/section>\n\n\n  \n  
      \n\n    
      7. Epson commands<\/h2>\n\n    
      \n      Available commands depend on the selected Epson projector profile and\n      on the commands supported by the projector itself.\n    <\/p>\n\n    
      \n      Typical ESC\/VP21 commands include:\n    <\/p>\n\n    
        \n      
      • Power On<\/li>\n      
      • Power Off<\/li>\n      
      • Power status feedback<\/li>\n      
      • HDMI input selection<\/li>\n      
      • Source selection<\/li>\n      
      • Menu<\/li>\n      
      • Back \/ Exit<\/li>\n      
      • Cursor Up \/ Down \/ Left \/ Right<\/li>\n      
      • Enter \/ OK<\/li>\n      
      • Lens Memory presets<\/li>\n      
      • Volume commands on supported models<\/li>\n    <\/ul>\n\n    
        \n      Not every Epson projector supports every ESC\/VP21 command.\n      Unsupported commands are model dependent.\n    <\/p>\n\n  <\/section>\n\n\n  \n  
        \n\n    
        8. Using Epson in MyURemote macros<\/h2>\n\n    
        \n      Epson projector commands can be included in normal MyURemote macros\n      together with televisions, AV receivers, media players, lighting and\n      other configured devices.\n    <\/p>\n\n    
        \n      For example, a Watch Movie<\/strong> macro could:\n    <\/p>\n\n    
          \n      
        • Power on the Epson projector.<\/li>\n      
        • Power on the AV receiver.<\/li>\n      
        • Select the correct receiver input.<\/li>\n      
        • Select HDMI on the Epson projector.<\/li>\n      
        • Recall the required Epson Lens Memory position.<\/li>\n      
        • Dim or switch off the room lights.<\/li>\n    <\/ul>\n\n    
          \n      Authentication is handled by the Epson extender itself, so the macro\n      does not need to contain separate password or connection commands.\n    <\/p>\n\n  <\/section>\n\n\n  \n  
          \n\n    
          9. Troubleshooting<\/h2>\n\n\n    
          \n      The projector does not respond\n    <\/h3>\n\n    
            \n      
          • Verify the Epson projector IP address.<\/li>\n      
          • Verify that the configured port is 3629<\/code>.<\/li>\n      
          • Make sure MyURemote and the projector can communicate on the same network.<\/li>\n      
          • Verify that network control is enabled on the projector.<\/li>\n      
          • Refresh\/restart MyURemote after configuration changes.<\/li>\n    <\/ul>\n\n\n    
            \n      MyURemote asks for a Monitor Password\n    <\/h3>\n\n    
            \n      The projector has reported that authenticated ESC\/VP.net communication\n      is required.\n    <\/p>\n\n    
            \n      Enter the Monitor Password configured in the Epson projector’s\n      network settings and press Save & Connect<\/strong>.\n    <\/p>\n\n\n    
            \n      The Monitor Password was changed\n    <\/h3>\n\n    
            \n      If the stored password is genuinely rejected by the projector,\n      MyURemote requests the current password again.\n      Enter the new Monitor Password and reconnect.\n    <\/p>\n\n\n    
            \n      Commands stop responding after the projector powers off\n    <\/h3>\n\n    
            \n      The projector can close its ESC\/VP.net TCP session during shutdown\n      or standby transitions.\n    <\/p>\n\n    
            \n      MyURemote automatically detects a lost session and attempts to establish\n      a new connection when another command or status query is sent.\n    <\/p>\n\n\n    
            \n      Power On does not work while the projector is fully off\n    <\/h3>\n\n    
            \n      Network availability while the projector is in standby depends on the\n      projector model and its standby\/network configuration.\n      Verify the network standby settings in the Epson projector.\n    <\/p>\n\n\n    
            \n      A specific command does not work\n    <\/h3>\n\n    
            \n      ESC\/VP21 command support varies between Epson projector models.\n      Verify that the selected device profile and command are supported by\n      your projector.\n    <\/p>\n\n  <\/section>\n\n\n  \n  
            \n\n    
            10. FAQ<\/h2>\n\n\n    
            \n      What port should I use?\n    <\/h3>\n\n    
            \n      The MyURemote Epson ESC\/VP.net integration uses\n      TCP port 3629<\/strong>.\n    <\/p>\n\n\n    
            \n      Does MyURemote use PJLink for Epson control?\n    <\/h3>\n\n    
            \n      No. This MyURemote Epson integration uses\n      ESC\/VP.net \/ ESC\/VP21<\/strong>.\n      PJLink is a separate projector control protocol.\n    <\/p>\n\n\n    
            \n      Do I always need a Monitor Password?\n    <\/h3>\n\n    
            \n      No. MyURemote checks the projector automatically.\n      If the projector allows an unauthenticated ESC\/VP.net session,\n      MyURemote connects directly.\n      If authentication is required, MyURemote asks for the Monitor Password.\n    <\/p>\n\n\n    
            \n      Do I need to enter the Monitor Password every time?\n    <\/h3>\n\n    
            \n      No. After successful authentication, MyURemote stores the password\n      and normally reuses it automatically for future connections.\n    <\/p>\n\n\n    
            \n      What happens if I change the password on the projector?\n    <\/h3>\n\n    
            \n      If the projector rejects the previously stored password,\n      MyURemote requests the new Monitor Password and stores it after\n      successful verification.\n    <\/p>\n\n\n    
            \n      Is the password shown in the MyURemote debug log?\n    <\/h3>\n\n    
            \n      No. MyURemote does not print the Monitor Password in the Epson\n      communication debug output.\n    <\/p>\n\n\n    
            \n      Can Epson commands be combined with other devices in macros?\n    <\/h3>\n\n    
            \n      Yes. Epson projector commands can be combined with AV receivers,\n      televisions, media players, lighting and other MyURemote devices in\n      the same macro.\n    <\/p>\n\n\n    
            \n      Do I need a special Epson zone?\n    <\/h3>\n\n    
            \n      No. The Epson projector is configured as a normal MyURemote AV device.\n      It can be selected as the central device of a zone or added as another\n      device in an existing zone.\n    <\/p>\n\n  <\/section>\n\n\n  \n
